just wondering what other people keep in there jeep as far as knives go and thought i would show what i use. b/c not too many people seem to know of em. the first set is 3 myerchin knives. there made for proffessional mariners and have shackle keys built into most of them. thats what the cut out is in the handle of the bottom fixed blade knife. and most come with a marlin spike which is useful to no end. i use it for undoing shackles, knots, splicing wire-rope and even have used it as a punchto nock out stuborn pins, for jeepin i would think the folder would be the most useful, i have one in both jeeps and they run around 50 bucks,. i use the fixed blades at work. and love them. so for those of you who like a bigger knife theyre they are. i dont work for myerchin nor am i trying to sell them to you just thought i would show that they are out there and havent heard of any one keeping them for jeeping and i use mine all the time. and they are extremely well made knives.
and heres a cool little collectible knife by kershaw i found yesterday at the local sporting goods store in gaylord michigan. its really a functional knife its auto assist but kinda small for a utility type knife. but it was on sale. so i figured it was a must have
The dedicated Jeep knife is an SOG Seal Pup. I usually have one or more on my person or in my purse as well, and there's a multi-tool in the emergency kit. I don't have any pics though, sorry...
I'd tend to think that a folding knife wouldn't be the best idea for use in Jeep related activities, solely because you'd get dirt and mud in it, so eventually it wouldn't fold/unfold too well
I got me one of those dive kives with the sheath straps meant to go around your leg. It's up out of the way strapped to the roll bar in it's clip-in sheath.
you bastard... I left you alone for three minutes! You scared the **** out of those people! Waving that g*d damned marlin spike around and yelling about reptiles. Youre lucky I came back in time. They were ready to call the cops.
I keep one of those $8 Walmart machetes in my jeep's rear storage, and a cheap gas station folder clipped to my pocket everday. Both highly sharpened...
LMFAO mark love the shank. still got some blood on it haha can you make some more im sure u got some metal left over from that lunch tray.
and the spike is for as i said before. untying knots, splicing line, splicing wirerope, or just poking w/e ur heart desires youd be surprised how many times you just need a metal fid to pry whatnots
Buck 110 and leatherman surge in the console, machete/saw behind the back seat, ka-bar in a tool bag with the recovery equipment, a craftsman utility knife in my toolbox, and a US army camillus swiss army style knife in the first aid kit. Plus the benchmade 940 I usually have in my pocket.
Great stuff:thumbsup:Here I thought I was just paranoid, My EDC is a CRKT Mirage, in the Jeep:Myerco speedster,Gerber Evo,Swiss Army,Med. & large Gerber Multi-tool, 38 Taurus w/speedloader,and finally a lead filled nightstick.
( I think that's all):cheers:
my knives arent really there as weapons. but the 4D maglight and the Glock Model 36 .45ACP is. mainly for bears. haha. at least thats what i tell myself
How do you like the Glock 36? I've thought about buying one, used to carry a 1911 45acp. Too heavy.
I tell myself similar tales, don't care what anybody thinks, I'm legal and I want it with me:2thumbsup:

I have the exact same model Kershaw. It's all black though, nothing special or "Jeep" about it. I've been carrying it everyday for about 6 years. Love it!
Nice! I'm kinda stuck with single stacks, I cut off the last joint of my trigger finger when I was a boy, so a double stack screws up my grip. I also play with 45 colt, SA.
